Abstract (en)
[origin: US4510957A] A support foot for walking aids, in particular crutches is presented, comprising a sole body which is fixed to a support plate anchored in articulated fashion to the support shaft. The support plate comprises a bordering skirt embodied as a universal plug socket to receive a standardized guide section of different sole bodies which are secured releasably in the bordering skirt by locking pins penetrating the same. The design of the support foot is such that it gives the handicapped a degree of safety unattained before and, furthermore, permits a conventional walking aid to be modified at very little expenditure for the handicapped so that it will be adapted in optimum manner to the respective surroundings.
